Resident Evil Outbreak
1
Attachment The US cover for both Outbreak and Outbreak File#2 uses the Resident Evil live-action movie title font in the name while the European and Japanese versions use the standard Resident Evil/Biohazard font.
Wii Music
1
Attachment In the Japanese release, the NES controller instrument instead features the Famicom design. While this was changed for the international release, the graphics for the Famicom version remain in the game's data.
Tetris 64
1
Attachment The Japanese exclusive Tetris 64 came with a bio sensor peripheral produced by SETA that attaches to the player's earlobe. In the game's Bio Tetris mode, the pace of the blocks falling will either speed up or slow down depending on the player's heart rate.
Franchise: Double Dragon
1
Attachment There exists a version of the original Double Dragon made specifically for the Zeebo, a niche console sold in Brasil, Mexico, Russia, India and China. Like Double Dragon Advance, it was a remake that was built completely from the ground up as its own separate game. This version included six missions composed of reworked adaptations of missions 1, 2 and 4 from the original Double Dragon, and three completely new missions. Also included were new enemy and boss characters, and a total of 18 unlockable characters for the game's Extra Battle Mode.
Red Dead Redemption
1
Attachment In South Korea, due to a lack of dubbing and translation with many games, titles like Red Dead Redemption and Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots come with a guide to read which translates the script from the game.
One Piece: Romance Dawn
1
Attachment The physical US release of the game was sold exclusively through Gamestop/EB Games and Namco Bandai's online store. Only 16,000 physical copies were made of the game, and each copy was individually numbered.
One Piece: Romance Dawn
1
The American 3DS release of the game did not retain the opening song from the Japanese release, "Eternal Waves" by TRIPLANE.
1
Many releases of the Master System included games in the console's BIOS that could be accessed by booting up the system without a cartridge in it. Some releases included multiple games, with one in Brazil boasting 131, but most included one of the following:

Snail Maze
Hang-On
Hang-On & Safari Hunt
Missile Defense 3-D
Alex Kidd in Miracle World
Sonic the Hedgehog
Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon
1
In the French translation, the first letter of each bonus mission in order reads "Luigi".
Franchise: Spyro the Dragon
1
Attachment In Japan, the first two games each came with a special game for the PocketStation. Since the PocketStation never made it outside Japan, these are the only Spyro games not available in the US.
Kirby Triple Deluxe
1
Attachment This is the first Kirby game to have Kirby with an angry expression on the game's cover in Japan.
Pokémon Diamond Version
subdirectory_arrow_right Pokémon Pearl Version (Game)
1
Attachment In the Canalave Library, the story "Sinnoh Folk Story 3"³ differs between the Western and Japanese releases of the game. The Western version tells about how Pokémon and humans were once very close and treated each other as equals. The Japanese version however tells about how Pokémon and humans used to marry each other which was considered normal because they once appeared similar.
Mortal Kombat: Deception
2
Attachment In France, the name had to be changed to Mortal Kombat: Mystification. This is due to the fact that the word "déception" is French for "disappointment".
Super Mario 64
1
Attachment The second Power Star on Cool Cool Mountain, acquired by reuniting the baby penguin with her mother, appeared over the mother penguin's head in the Japanese version. It was moved next to the pool in other releases, likely to make it easier to obtain.
Super Mario 64
1
Princess Peach doesn't have any voice acting in the original Japanese release during the beginning and final cutscenes. This was added for all other versions.
Franchise: Pokémon
1
In the first 3 generations of the Pokémon games, the player can use the HM "Cut" to remove patches of tall grass to avoid wild Pokémon. In Pokémon Emerald, the ability Hyper Cutter enhances this feature of Cut, causing it to clear a larger area of tall grass around the user. However, neither of these features were carried forward to the fourth or subsequent generations of Pokémon games.
Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure
1
Attachment The game was released in Japan almost two years after the initial release in the US. However, instead of being released across a range of different consoles, the game was only released for the Wii and Wii U. Due to this, Japan is the only country with a Wii U release of Spyro's Adventure.
Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Z
1
Attachment The back of the PAL release claims that this is the first game in which Super Saiyan God Goku is a playable character. However, this statement is only half true: while this is the first Dragon Ball game released outside of Japan to feature a playable Super Saiyan God Goku, it's actually the third game overall with this feature.

The previous two games were the arcade titles Dragon Ball: Zenkai Battle Royale and Dragon Ball Heroes in 2013 through updates, although they were both exclusively released in Japan. Super Saiyan God Goku also appeared prior in Dragon Ball Heroes: Ultimate Mission for the 3DS, though he was non-playable.
Metropolis Street Racer
1
Metropolis Street Racer had an extremely rocky development cycle. Multiple delays of the game pushed its European release date from late 1999 to late 2000, and the Japanese release was cancelled entirely.

After its release in Europe, various bugs in the game resulted in a recall, with Sega issuing replacement discs. The re-issued European version became the US release.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
1
During the Subspace Emissary, Ike will shout "Great Aether!" before attacking the Ancient Minister in a cutscene. However, the attack he does is merely a normal Aether.

This may have been done to match the pacing of the Japanese version, where he says "ten" as he leaps into the air, and "kuu" as he swings his sword down.
